Priiloader actually overwrites the system menu, so either when you press the reset button on your wii or click the reset button on the home key will make you load priiloader instead of the real menu (same goes for homebrew, by the way).

As such, if you set priiloader to auto-load wiiflow the way Deadlyfoez describes, it will pretty much immediately load wiiflow whenever you quit to 'the system menu'.

Reset is meant to restart the game. The fact that it attempts to return to the system menu instead is a bug caused by usb loading (IOS is reloaded and the game disc can't be found)... which appears to have been fixed recently so this trick won't work any more.
Nintendo's own titles handle Reset differently; games like SMG and NSMB restart their execution rather than reloading IOS and loading the main dol again. This is why Reset has always functioned correctly for them even when loading from USB.

are you sure it is a bug caused by USB loaders? i think it has something to do rather with the ocarina cheat handler. when i start a game via geckoOS and have the codehandler loaded, the reset button causes a full reset. it loads bootmii.

it might just be the way the apploader stuff is handled in homebrew game launchers, and be completely independent of the cheat handler. but im positive it happens from geckoOS.

It can be caused by anything that goes wrong e.g. failure to reload the IOS, can't open /dev/di, can't find the right disc partition, can't read the apploader, apploader falls down and can't get up... All fails normally lead to loading the system menu but sometimes that messes up too if it can't find the right tmdview.
If you run a game using tinyload the reset button works fine. There's nothing wrong with how (most) homebrew apps run a game's apploader, although the methods used to clean up and jump to the main dol code after it's loaded are normally pretty bad.

I can't follow this discussion 100%, why do some usb loaders apparently intentionally crash if you select Reset in the home menu? The latest cIOS allows to playing IOS Reloading games from wbfs(FAT/NTFS soon) and it allows to replace any system menu loading by any channel you want. So in NeoGamma, the game should properly reset on Reset and return to the channel that executed NeoGamma on return to system menu.

If you want the same in your loader, get the devs to implement those 2 features and install the latest d2x cIOS.

No, that's not true. I have it to boot to Installed File, which is WiiFlow. If I'm in a game and I go to Home, it takes me to the System Menu. I'm talking about pressing "Reset" in a game, and making that take you to WiiFlow.

My other Wii is set up like this, I'm trying to get my uncle's to do this.

As others have said, the 'reset' functions differently on all games. But to make it that when you press the 'Home' button and then the 'System Menu' and have it return to wiiflow, in the priiloader settings change the 'return to' to priiloader.

But, just pressing 'reset' in the home menu and have it go to wiiflow will not work with all games, but still to get it to work with those games that it will work with you still need to do the step above of changing priiloaders 'return to' to 'priiloader'. Done and done.
